Football Fish Part 2

Waves flush my face. I can’t go to sleep without thinking of what comes after and what happens during. I can’t stop crying and I can’t sleep, either. I wish I were a football fish, lightbulb atop my head forever. Guiding the way for me no matter how dark it gets underwater.

Ah, I can see that it would be a blessing for you, Ruby. I think sometimes I'd like to have a "lightbulb atop my head," too, especially when we lose power.
